Lord of The Ring: Two Towers came on last night on TNT.
I looved LOTR. There are times when I just disappear into it. You have to be in the mood though. I have the extended version DVDs too!
I enjoy them as well. Although it took me 5 tries on the first movie before I actually sat through it and paid attention.

I remember going to Circuit City to check out their computers and they would be playing previews of either Bad Boys, the still shot scene, where Martin and Will's character stand up, after Mike saves his partner from getting hit by that cab. I like that part. Cool scene.
And they would play the part of Lord of The Rings, where Arwen told that evil things in regards to Frodo. "If you want him, come and get him."
Because of the Fellowship of The Ring preview, I've bought the movie for cheap and had it for a while, before I have even seen it. What made me take it out of the package was when I've gone to rent a movie and the lady behind the counter had a Lord of The Ring:The Fellowship of The Ring pin on and we started talking about the movie. She told me it was a good movie.
So, I've gone home and watched it and found out it was a few minutes shy of being 3 hours, but it didn't bother me.
I've gone to the movies to see The Two Towers.
I've seen Return Of The King on DVD, but haven't seen all of it. I have it on DVD. I will have to watch all of it.
That triology is a good one.
Mod
My favorite of the trilogy is ROTK, but TTT is my second fave. I loved the battle scenes (bad of me, huh?).
Mod
Legolas: "And you shall have my bow"
Mod
Mod
Gandolf: "Go you fools."
When he falls.
Frodo: "Gannndooolllffff"
In Two Towers, I like how Legolas gets on that horse and when the trees stuck their head in the water to stop the fire.
Mod
I like the scene when Eowyn vaniquishes the physical manifestation of Sauron on the battlefield, and the part with Legolas on the elephant in ROTK. Epic, and I do mean, epic, battle scenes!
Mod
Oh, and I like the part where Frodo is in the pub in The Fellowship of The Ring and he falls to the ground and when he reaches catches the ring, he disappears. That was cool.
Elijah is cute. I'll never forget his lays chip commerical. He was probably like 12 years old. That voice of his. "I bet you can't eat just one."
In TFOTR, he screamed a lot. He's a good actor, with those facial expression.
Mod
I remember when the FotR first came out, I went to go see it a good 11 times in theaters...looking back, I can only explain such behavior by saying "it was Legolas!!!!" ^_^ all his fault.

Eugenia wrote: "I remember going to see 'The Two Towers' maybe this why this one is my favorite. My best friend and I went and Legalos did that backward kind of horse grab and jumped onto the horse with Gimli duri..."He had good scenes
Mod
Legolas is hot!
Mod
That was a cool scene and most talked about scene among Legolas fans.

You must some really strong butt cheeks.
Loni wrote: "Now I like LOTR, but how in the world did you sit through the movie 11 times?!

Okay, having read the trilogy when I was in high school and whose geeky best friend read all the books, not only do we sit through a whole day of watching the entire series, we like to get in conversations about the book compared to the movie. Okay, I can't speak Elvish yet. My friend even wrote a fan-fiction piece with Legolas as the hero which takes place among the elves.We are LOTR dweebs and proud of it. We still imitate Gollum quite a bit.
Can't wait until Peter Jackson does The Hobbit. That's gonna be very good.
Speaking of nerds, you can actually go and visit the LOTR set in New Zealand.

My mother is the ultimate fan of these movies. When she stayed with my grandmother when she had ovarian surgery, my aunt was driving her crazy. Whenever my aunt would come into her room, she would turn on TTT, and my aunt would run off. She didn't 'get' the LOTR movies.

More Legolas for me. I want his bow. :)
Ets: He's bowlegged too. :) :)
We only break out the LOTR on holidays because you can leave cook food and come back and catch up on the movie real quick. I watched the director's cut with commentary and every thing. I was impressed with the detail and near divine reverence they took with creating the movie.
Mod
Everyone laughs at me because all I can talk about is how I want to throw Viggo in a bathtub and give him a good scrub down and clear out whatever's in his mouth so I can understand him more.As far as underrated cutie, I love me some Karl Urban.
I thought it was brilliant how they brought to life the love story between Aragorn and Arwen. It wasn't featured in the book, only a short summary given in the appendix.
Mod
Yes, I Have loved him since he played cupid on Xena.
Mod
He should be in more movies or get a tv series in the US

I'm back in the states visiting my mom. I went to one of my cousins home the other night and we watched Lord of the Rings: Fell..."

Oh I like that head elf. He can rock my tree anytime.
Mod
You're talking about the elf with the black hair, the man that played on the Matrix as well.

I don't know if he played on the matrix. Yeah he had black hair. He was the father of that elf girl who was in love with Aragon or whatever his name is.
Oh lordy that elf was hot! I would knock boots with him anytime
Rae wrote: "Elrond (Hugo Weaving)?"Yeah Elrond- that sounds like him.
Mod
The actor that played the head elf played on both The Lord of The Rings and The Matrix.
On the Matrix, he was the man that would multiple himself.

Yes, I listened to an interview during the time the trilogies were coming out. He was contracted to secrecy about the finales. On the Matrix he was called Mr. Smith.
really? i didn't realize he was in the matrix as well. i must dust off my dvd of the matrix

Yup that is him. He also did drag in The adventures of Priscilla Queen of the Desert
I'm back in the states visiting my mom. I went to one of my cousins home the other night and we watched Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring, on DVD.
Now not only did they have Commemtary and behind the scene stuff, they had an extra 40 mintues to the movie!
I'm like DAYUM!
I mean, I love the movie, one of the best fantasy
movies out there, but really. It's long enough as it is.
Oh, and they had the nerve to show the scenes that hit the cutting rom floor.
I'll say it again: "DAYUM!"
Just me venting, don't mind me. ROFL!
